is "MNNI" the DMV's "abbreviation" for MINI???
So I just got back from the DMV, where I was told that "MNNI" is apparently their abbreviation for "MINI". Is this true???
My insurance company said they wouldn't insure my brand new MINI because the DMV's records didn't match theirs... The VIN number was correct, but they had never heard of a "MNNI"...
WHO is the crazy one here??

Yep, I lived in MN when I bought my Mini, and when I got the title, I saw that and asked the clerk if it was a mistake - or if they seriously abbreviated a 4 letter word with a 4 letter abbreviation. She said she knew it was silly, but indeed "MNNI" is the abbreviation for "MINI".

Is the new Veyron a BGGATTI? I still don't see how this makes sense. It's still the same company, they've just been bought by BMW, right? And it's still the same model name. I doubt that new VLLKSWAGEN Beetles have this issue.
I know I'm overthinking this, but I just don't get this explanation.
MNNI is not an abbreviation. It's longer.

Volkswagen is abreviated as VW at the DMV.
Only some classic's could be labeled with MINI. Others would be BRLY (or something like that) for British Leyland, or ROVR for Rover, since they all made the Mini in some variation at some point in time.
It could be any of the manufacurers of the car over its production run:
BMC
Austin Rover
British Leyland
MG Rover, etc, etc etc.
